Top five spring 10Ks

Spring is in the air and its the season to run 10K. Check out our top five 10Ks and get racing.

Peckham may not be the most obvious choice for a 10K race, but it's proven to be rather popular. With medals, T-Shirts and winners' prizes , this sell-out London run is back again for another year at the scenic Peckham Rye Park. Facilities include toilets, onsite parking, refreshments and supervised bag storage .

Set among the bluebells in Cassiobury Park, the multiterrain Watford 10K is popular with runners of all abilities. Organised on behalf of Watford Round Table and Watford Mencap, the undulating race attracts over 1,000 participants, so early entry is advised. In addition to the main 10K race, shorter distances will be held for younger athletes and kids.

This cross country 10K run set in a beautiful estate meandering through bluebells and pine woods may look like a walk in the park, but in reality it's a tough course designed with serious runners in mind. With medals prizes and bacon sandwiches it will be worth it though.

Famed for its muddy bogs and swampy streams and obstacles, this race is mot for the feint hearted. But with great goody bags and surprises, participant can expect to leave smiling (and covered in mud).
